Today, I received my 'tea' InkPad 3 from Decitre. It was properly packaged and appeared to be a brand new device (model number PB740 with production date October 15, 2018). Coming from a Nook Simple Touch, the display and frontlight on the InkPad 3 look amazing.
I didn't even try setting it up with the original 'tea' firmware. Instead, I immediately updated to the latest Pocketbook firmware (5.19.660). I didn't have much time today, but so far everything works fine. I'll do some more testing later this week.
Now I need to find myself a nice cover. Does anyone know if the kwmobile Case for Pocketbook InkPad 3 supports the sleep function? Is there a reed switch in the front somewhere that is switched by a magnet in the cover?
